“…Most other species were reported from wild plants and do not have economic significance (Bouhalia and Kheder 2021). For example, in Australia, about 90 species of Dacinae have been described, but only a few of these are pests of introduced fruits (Dominiak and Worlsey 2018). Fruit flies are pests with essential meaning for agriculture; there are essential pests on fruits, including commercial fruits with high economic value.…”

“…Fruit flies attack caused economic impacts that include direct yield losses, increased production costs due to suppression actions, and a limiting factor in international trade in fresh agricultural commodities (Grove et al 2019). Fruit fly species of the tribe Dacini are key pest groups in Asia and the Pacific regions (Dominiak and Worlsey 2018). They pose a serious threat to horticulture because of the damage inflicted and quarantine implications (Linda et al 2018).…”

“…While widespread throughout Queensland, Z. cucumis currently has a restricted distribution in the Northern Territory, although there is a disputed single record from northern Western Australia [66]. Both Fitt [67] and the Horticultural Policy Council [4] reported that if the cucurbit industry expands in the Northern Territory, the pest status of Z. cucumis may increase.…”

“…However, while the species has been trapped frequently in the Northern Territory, it has not been found on cucurbits growing in this region [6]. In NSW, Z. cucumis appears to be currently limited to regions close to the Queensland border, with rare detection as far south as Sydney [66] . It has not been detected in the (former) Fruit Fly Exclusion Zone in southern NSW [37].…”

“…Zeugodacus cucumis (French) is a pest fruit fly endemic to Australia, in Northern Territory, eastern Queensland, north‐east New South Wales and the Torres Strait Islands (Royer, De Faveri, Lowe, & Wright, ). It has been recorded from cucurbits and other commercial hosts including tomatoes, papaw, guava and passion fruit (Dominiak & Worsley, ). Another Australian endemic pest species Bactrocera jarvisi (Tryon) is distributed in Northern Territory, Broome in Western Australia, Queensland, New South Wales south to Sydney (Fay, ; PHA, ) and is also present in Indonesia (West Papua) and the mainland of Papua New Guinea (Leblanc, Vueti, Drew, & Allwood, ).…”
